Urban ComputingThe integration of computing, sensing, and actuation technologies into everyday urban settings and lifestyles. [source IEEE Pervasive Computing,July-September 2007 (Vol. 6, No. 3)] Urban settings include streets, squares, pubs, shops, buses, and cafés - any space in the semipublic realms of our towns and cities Only in the last few years research paid attention to urban environments Pervasive computing is more and more applied Great success of Location-based Services and Location-based Social Networks with increasing amounts of data Urban settings are challenging for experimentation & deploymentIBM Colloquium - Open Data Track 7 Dublin, 27th October 2011

LarKC Urban Computing Use Case Urban Computing to address cities challenges LarKC to elaborate urban data and provide solutionsIs public transportation where the people are? Which landmarks attract more people? Where are people concentrating? Where is traffic moving? IBM Colloquium - Open Data Track 8 Dublin, 27th October 2011

Semantic Technologies "Semantics" in the LarKC Urban Computing use caseSemantic Points of Interest (POIs) retrieval: Which are the relevant monuments? What events are scheduled tonight? What POIs should I visit?Operations Research: What is the most "desirable" path to my destination (shortest vs. quickest)? How should I schedule my city tour given my time constraints (TSP problem)?Machine Learning: What POIs could be interesting for me? Should I expect traffic on my way to…? Which "mavens" of this POI should I ask for advice?RDF/SPARQL/OWL based interoperability: integration and interoperability between different components through the adoption of Semantic Web technologies (enabled by the LarKC platform)IBM Colloquium - Open Data Track 9 Dublin, 27th October 2011
